| Guitar- I've always loved Zappa'a arrangements because they displayed the brilliance of everyone in the band. This is just a bunch of live solos that, though great, do not astound as much as his "real" songs. |

Guitar.
Mr. Zappa was a wonderful guitar player, but an album filled with 2 hours of guitar solo is a bit too much for me. -------------  |

See the plan is to give myself something to keep me occupied until I get my drivers liscense. Nah, I am just trying to ensure that the best album really does win, therefore every album must be included. ------------- Beauty will save the world.
